i'm sorry but the moon is a complete boondoggle that should never have been put up there in the first place. we still have to send repair missions up there a hundred-plus years later all because taft was trailing in the polls and decided to learn magick. i don't know why he thought it would help him

the question is not “are LLMs conscious?” the question is “is the probability of LLMs being moral patients high enough that it should inform the way we treat them?” (obviously bluesky can handle neither)

I'm afraid this is anthropomorphizing. The proof was there all along in future training data.

i love the little grin on this interviewer’s face while desperately trying to get the “woke ai company” ceo to say something sufficiently woke sounding honestly pretty wild how quickly CBS turned into state media, i would’ve thought it would be at least a bit more gradual
still from CBS interview of dario amodei, in which the interviewer grins while asking “but is it an abuse of power?”

detail from this axios story that i think people haven’t noticed yet: it looks like it specifically was about mass domestic surveillance that is currently in a legal loophole. they were willing to drop the autonomous weapons part as long as they could spy on us web.archive.org/web/20260228...
Behind the scenes: Defense undersecretary
Emil Michael was on the phone offering Anthropic a deal just as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth tweeted the company would be designated a supply chain risk, a source familiar told Axios.
• That deal would have required allowing the collection or analysis of data on Americans, from geolocation to web browsing data to personal financial information purchased from data brokers, the source added.

the reason AGI is such a useless word is that it was coined in the pre-LLM era, when we knew how to train narrow intelligences but generality was a major challenge that felt out of reach. LLMs are not the AGI that was imagined, but they’re straightforwardly AGI, so people bicker over outdated terms

it's unbelievable to me that someone could actually be a trillionaire. i think most of us have trouble internalizing how much money that truly is. let me put it in simple terms for you: a trillion dollars is three million dollars

2026 is about affordable homeownership. No more "policy" this year. Feed the local fauna, befriend them, and then use them to overpower homeowners so you can occupy their dwellings.

i’ve been as skeptical as anyone of the whole videogen personalized media thing but it did just occur to me that one way i could imagine it eventually adding value is if i could take all the movies about het couples that should obviously have been about lesbians and have it remake them the right way

I spent 72 hours checking the posting times of every Gazan account I saw fundraising. More than 2/3 of them were inconsistent with Gaza but consistent with Myanmar or Cambodia, where hundreds of thousands of people are trafficked into doing scam work under threat of violence or death.
